RESUMEN
The complex epimorphic regeneration of zebrafish caudal fin tissue is hasty and absolute. This study was executed to understand the role of various genes/proteins involved in the regeneration of zebrafish caudal fin tissue through differential transcriptomics and proteomics analysis. Based on our study 1408 genes and 661 proteins were found differentially regulated in the regenerating caudal fin tissue for having at least 1-log fold change. Interleukin, Solute carrier, Protein arginine methyltransferase, Homeobox, Neurotransmitter and several novel genes were found to be associated with regeneration for its differential regulation during the mechanism. Based on the network and pathway analysis the differentially regulated genes and proteins were found allied with activation of cell proliferation, cell viability, cell survival & cell movement and inactivation of organismal death, morbidity, necrosis, death of embryo & cell death. This study has mapped a detailed insight of the genes/proteins expression associated with the epimorphic regeneration more profoundly.

Newcastle disease (ND) is an economically important, contagious poultry viral disease reported across the globe. In India, ND is endemic and episodes of ND outbreaks despite strict vaccinations are not uncommon. We isolated and characterized seven ND viruses from vaccinated commercial poultry farms during severe disease outbreaks in Tamil Nadu, in Southern India, between April 2015 and June 2016. All the seven isolates were categorized as virulent by mean death time (48-54 hr) in embryonated chicken eggs. Also, their sequences carried the virulence signature of multi-basic amino acid residues in their fusion protein cleavage site (RRQ/RR/KRF). Phylogenetic and evolutionary distance analyses revealed circulation of a novel sub-genotype of genotype XIII, class II ND viruses, herein proposed as sub-genotype XIIIe. The genetic divergence between the circulating virulent strains and the vaccine strains could possibly explain the disease outbreak in the vaccinated flocks. Further, our study signifies the need to implement routine epidemiological surveillance and to revisit the current vaccination program.
